HOW TO KITE BOARDING

The Basics

kitesurfnomadshinnplayerFIRST, GET AN instructor. You can’t teach yourself to kiteboard without also taking a trip to the ER. First up is a trainer kite, a smaller kite used only on the beach, to get a feel for how you’ll be pulled in the harness. From there, full-size kites range in size from five to 18 square meters. The size you need is determined by your weight, the wind speed (the faster the wind, the smaller the kite) and your experience, so expect to start with something right in the middle. Every kite has inflatable support beams that help the kite spread to catch wind and also keep it (and you) from
being pulled under when it hits the water. In terms of staying attached to the kite, there are two types of harnesses: A seat harness is more like a climbing harness, securing your legs and waist. Most pros, however, opt for a waist harness, which increases mobility for tricks and twists. You’ll be fine with either. From there you use the bar to control speed and the board to change direction. And don’t forget your life vest.

The Wind Window

IMAGINE THERE IS a half-dome directly downwind in front of and above you. The location of your kite in this dome dictates how strongly you’ll be pulled along by the wind. Straight up above you and out to your sides is the neutral zone, where your kite will stay aloft but not pull you. Directly out in front of you is the power zone, where your kite will pull the hardest. In between the two is the aptly named intermediate zone, where you will be pulled hard, but not too hard.

CONTROL

  1. IF YOU FEEL like you’re going too fast and need to slow down, push the bar up and away from you. The kite will rise straight up out of the power zone and into the neutral zone where it won’t pick up as much wind. This is known as depowering. When you’re ready, pull the bar back toward you.
  2. IF YOU START to lose control and feel like you’re in danger, harnesses have a quick release called a chicken loop located right in front of you between the harness and the bar. Pull the tab on the release to disengage the lines, and the kite will fall harmlessly into the water.
